With plans to include renewable energy resources into its infrastructure design and a focus on sustainability, Palm Jebel Ali will be virtually entirely self-sufficient in terms of electricity generation once it is finished. Palm Jebel Ali will get up to 30% of its energy needs from renewable sources.
